The one reason RQS came up to my place this weekend was that I had made reservations at Hudson House Inn and Restaurant for a nice romantic dinner. This gave me the opportunity to finally wear a pretty dress from Lane Bryant that has been hanging on my door for several months. (My dress is in the same style as in the above photo, but in a nice violet color.)
If you recall, our original plans for Thanksgiving dinner were fouled up by RQS's hospital stay. This time, we made sure that no problems would get in the way of a romantic dinner. RQS came up the day before, and we made sure to have enough time to make it to Cold Spring with time to spare.
We made it to the restaurant on time, and proceeded to have a wonderful dinner starting with crab cakes, salmon with crab meat stuffing, and finished with an apple tart. Both of us enjoyed people-watching there, as some people dressed to the nines for the evening, and others were very casual. We were somewhere in the middle with our dresses, wearing outfits which would fit in a dressy environment, but could be dressed down as needed for other environments.
At home, we exchanged Valentine's day gifts. I was very lucky that RQS's gift was delivered on time, as I didn't want to be empty handed when she gave me my gift. It was a nice day, and a good start to the weekend.
